Inventor: LEE STEPHEN
IPC: H01S3/094
Filed: 2012-11-29
Abstract: The invention relates to a pulsed laser apparatus comprising a rod- type solid-state gain medium (15) and at least one energy source for providing energy to the gain medium, wherein the apparatus is configured to selectively provide thermal compensation energy from the energy source to the gain medium when the thermal load of the gain medium and/or a pulse rate of the apparatus is below an optimum value. A transverse pumping scheme may be used with laser diode (35) pumping and being controlled by a pump diode driver (40). The resonator comprises further a HR mirror (30) and an output coupler (20) and a passive Q-switch (25). The curvature of the output coupler is chosen to realize a stable resonator for the gain medium (15) having a constant thermal lens. Between the pump pulses (60) resulting in lasing, additional pump pulses (70a-e) are provided with the laser being below threshold but keeping the thermal lens inside the gain medium constant.
